So is your argument everyone should have guns? Because the people wanting to murder you for no reason will have access to them too. I doubt they will invade your home to kill you if they can only get a kitchen knife in stores as a weapon.
How often are people being hunted and killed for just being who they are? Are there actual groups who specifically home invade to kill LGBTQIA+? I knew the US was fucked up, but I haven’t heard of actual death squads.
My argument is that as long as the people who want me dead have guns, I should probably have a gun as well. This goes double for my trans brothers and sisters. In a perfect world, nobody would have guns. In a perfect world, cancer wouldn’t exist. But Americans have guns, and cancer exists, so we should quit smoking and remain armed for now.
Statistically there’s a higher chance to use a gun on yourself during dark days, you know, which we all have sometimes, or have someone hurt during an accident with it (like a kid finds it or you shoot your partner/kid/friend coming home late while thinking it’s a burger) than you actually needing to protect yourself.
But why is it there are so many murder hungry people in the US? You make it sound like the Purge. What does law enforcement do with these murderous groups? Honestly, I haven’t heard of any group actively braking in to kill people just because. Do you have sources of this happening?

It’s common enough that it’s a viable legal defense for murder.
